I have always been a care giver, I was a child care provider for 25 years and knew from day one that my future was in Senior care. When my mother became ill and ended up in a Senior home i knew I had to step up and get my mother home. I closed up my business of 25 years and spent the next year caring for my mother. I noticed immediately that my mother's health and her mental well being had improved greatly, I knew then how important it was for Seniors to remain in their own home, I spent a year with my mom and decided to hire a new caregiver for her so that we could go back to the mother daughter relationship instead of the senior caregiver relationship. I went in to two different home care companies to get more experience. I've helped some wonderful people stay in their home, I am very rewarded in this work and feel good deep down that I have been able to enable seniors to live healthily and with dignity in their chosen place of residents , and contributes to the caregiving needs of my community
